Best Place to Meet the DJ (For Free) New York 2001 - Guernica

Nightlifers always want to complain, but let's put our foot down: GUERNICA is fucking cool. Paying no cover is an instant icebreaker, as is the whole through-the-looking-glass scenario of gliding past the restaurant and descending into the beat-infested world below. The space is intimate without being low energy. Big names pop in for techno, drum'n'bass, and 2step, and attitude is at such an all-time low that DJs are often found on the dancefloor, and regulars are greeted with a smile and handshake.
